date-fns provides the most comprehensive, yet simple and consistent toolset
for manipulating JavaScript dates in a browser & Node.js.

---

It's like Lodash for dates.

It has 180+ functions for all occasions.

Modular: Pick what you need. Works with webpack, Browserify, or Rollup and also supports tree-shaking.

Native dates: Uses existing native type. It doesn't extend core objects for safety's sake.

Immutable & Pure: Built using pure functions and always returns a new date instance.

TypeScript & Flow: Supports both Flow and TypeScript

I18n: Dozens of locales. Include only what you need.

and many more benefits

      
      import { compareAsc, format } from 'date-fns'
      
      format(new Date(2014, 1, 11), 'yyyy-MM-dd')
      //=> '2014-02-11'
      
      const dates = [
        new Date(1995, 6, 2),
        new Date(1987, 1, 11),
        new Date(1989, 6, 10),
      ]
